Has anyone heard of anything else about the new bender suspension? I'm thinking about buy one but I'am very intereasted about the ease of installation and the ride quality. Do you lose speed or weight transfer? How's the new sleds ride it looks just like that suspension? Any input would be great. Or is the M-10 still the best pick, need to do something I'm not getting any younger.
 
I'm thinking about buying the reaction also - I rode an Attak this weekend, and the ride was very plush, although the Viper is a little more of a "FUN" type of ride in the twisty's. Looks like Benders new suspension is as close to the Mono RA as you will get without getting a mono RA.
 
I just got my re-action installed in my viper , it takes a real good full day to take apart and put in. My first impression when i was putting it together was not very good, bender could of had a lot better directions,on how to do some of the things when i was assembling, i work with snowmoble's all the time and they need to explane a few things a little better or the commen guy will have a tough time putting this in. They did a very good job on the welding, but the paint could of been better cause i did have of few clear coat runs. Over all this is a very nice piece. Well then i went for a test run, not a real good test because we only have 2 inches of snow but enough to get a feel. The first time i took off it about tipped over backwards it tranford to much weight, so i did not care for that, so i shorten the limtter strap all the way, they did have it lethen all the way, then i tryed it , from 0 to 35 miles per hour it will hold the skis off the ground about 10 inches, after 35 it just seems light in the front , we really don't have enough snow to tell how it will handle in the trails i think it will take some time to get it dialed in , as far as the ride i think i will ride better, so i am hoping for more snow so i can get it just the way i like it.
